Polyethylene Glycols (PEGs) for Drug Formulation

Simplify Your Process

With a wide range of polyethylene glycol (PEG) grades in solid, semi-solid and liquid form, we can help simplify your formulation process no matter the application. Our PEG portfolio may be applied to reduce poor solubility, increase bioavailability, and improve the hydrophilicity of your active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

Benefits of PEGs:

• Widely used in a variety of pharmaceutical formulations
• Emprove® documentation and regulatory support
• Available in a variety of grades (solid, semi-solid and liquid) from 200 to 20,000 average molecular weight

Use in Various Applications

• Matrix for controlled release drug delivery systems (e.g., hydrogels or solid dispersions)
• Viscosity adjustment
• Film coatings
• Lubricant
• Solubilizer for the API and improvement of the wettability
